Hoteles en West Central Brazil, Brasil

West Central Brazil is the country's heartland, covering the Pantanal wetlands and the Cerrado savanna, famous for its jaguar sightings and Oscar Niemeyer's modernist buildings in Brasília. In the dry season (May to September, 70-80°F / 21-27°C), you can take a boat safari on the Paraguay River to spot capybaras and caimans, or hike the Vale da Lua's eroded rock formations in Chapada dos Veadeiros. During the rainy summer (November to March, 80-90°F / 27-32°C), the Cerrado's vegetation turns lush and you can explore Brasília's National Congress and the memorial to Juscelino Kubitschek.
